I don't care for #6 but it was an Emmy-winning series in it's early years before it started relying too much on stuntcasting. Sex And The City, Ally McBeal and Golden Girls all won Emmys for Best Comedy Series as well and all deserved them for the seasons they won for.

There are a lot of BAD tv shows that are far worse than shows that you might not like the content of. You think a show like Cavemen is better written and acted than Golden Girls or Sex And The City?

As for Will & Grace, I LOVED seasons 1-3, 4 was okay and the last decent overall season IMHO. The last four years of the show to me were for the most part a big disappointment. The characters became caricatures of themselves (and not in a good way), and then there is the guest star factor. I love a good guest star from time to time, but with W&G, it didn't seem to me like they thought the plot was that important. It was all about "ZOMG (insert celeb's name) IS ON THIS WEEK! ONLY ON NBC!" It just wasn't the same anymore. It was obvious there were creative changes, and those changes mostly were not for the better.

With the exception of #14, you have named all hit shows.

Also, funny how people only mention shows that they just personally hate rather than based on other factors. I mean, you won't see any of the younger people naming shows from the 50's or 60's or even 70's that they haven't seen because they haven't been in syndication. My point being that there are definitely some clunkers out there from every era, every year, every decade.

Absolutely. Also it depends how you look at things. I'm the type who focuses on what I like rather than onwhat I don't like. And there are so many great shows, that I really don't have the time or desire to think about what I hate. But I guess they'd likely be shows that got cancelled pretty quickly, that were so awful I've blanked them out--and certainly not the shows that have been listed thus far.

Let's not forget the horrid reality shows, so-called talk shows, late night shows that flopped, etc.
